strewn about the streets of Dalaran, of Orgrimmar, of Stormwind and even those of Thunder Bluff to Silvermoon and Darnassus to Ironforge; there comes a wave of fliers that adhere to every wall and alley*
*Sponsored by the Borrowed Time company*
Come one come all!
To further relations between the Horde and Alliance, we are proud to announce a fundraising event that is sure to be worth every copper spent!
The Mystery Auction Extravaganza!
A one-time event that is sure to have you on the edge of your seats with the sheer suspense of it all! Come buy yourself a date, based not on race nor faction nor even looks! Buy them from self-made cards describing themselves for that pure mystery of an unknown rendezvous!
What could he or she be? An orc? A dwarf? A tauren? A kaldorei? Who knows!
All are welcome to join us January 7th at 6pm on the goblin clock; with our hosts of Phyruss Arath’dorei who will be announcing and bidding on behalf of our wonderful women and the beautiful Siane who will be representing our hunky men!
*Fine Print*
Purchasing a date does not constitute offers of sexual favors in exchange for money. All dates are confirmed eligible of age and are of their own minds. All contestants are guaranteed safety on their dates, covered by Borrowed Time, Sanctuary, and Twilight Empire enforcers.
Obey the rules or they break your face.
((OOC))
So the rules are as follows!
-The Biddees are to write a 255 character maximum description of their characters, without using any proper nouns; i.e. Faction, Race, Names, Guilds, etc. They are asked to instead describe personality, hobbies, ideas for a date, anything to represent themselves before an audience.
If you would rather not write one, we can write one for you! Send a description to us, but it's all the more fun if you do it yourselves to best give the full disclosure on your character, right?
-On Jan. 7th, there will be a Discord up for cross-faction RP, but the auction itself will be transpiring in Old Dalaran in the Legerdemain Lounge. In-game RP is encouraged, but we also hope to make use of this server to talk between Horde and Alliance!
-Its up to you and the person you won to set the dates for your schedules to best go on them!
-We hope to be able to use real gold for this, but with enough protest, we might just switch to RP currency with a longer time limit. With real gold however, we will be able to purchase gifts for those who participate!
-The rule for actual gold: 2 minute auction time, can only do a max increase of 100g until the bud reaches 2000+, then the bids come with a maximum of 200. RP currency, the time limit will be 3 minutes with 50g increments.
-Your description will be sold on that night, not necessarily you! So this way, this allows your character to not have to attend the night themselves if you have a conflicting issue, or wish to come on a different character to place bids!
-Dates don’t have to be romantic! Buy someone who sounds like you’d have fun with!
-Please whisper Cobrak on Discord, or PM me on wow-tng with your descriptions! And honor code here, but don't tell anyone what you wrote for maximum surprise!

A crisp sheet of parchment is nailed to the common use notification board in many major Horde cities.
((Tentative Date is Sept 17th, 7:30pm Server time. The only rule is NO LEGENDARY RING. Flask, food, and potions are allowed))

History:
In the alternative timeline whence the Horde and Alliance ripped themselves apart only to be set upon by a host of Infinite dragons and Wyrmcultists, Phyruss was born in the abandoned estate of his ancestral home, the Arath'dorei manor to Sinlanna Arath'dorei and an unknown lover. At the time, SInlanna's death knight husband, Naheal, took the child as his own and raised it alongside Sinlanna's other child from a previous rendezvous, Isadore, as his own.
The two grew up in a world beset by dangers, Phyruss early on witnessing the death of many of the small familial company he had come to know.
For near twenty years this went on, until an incident involving time travel and several other members of the Borrowed Time family were sent into an era that did not yet know what awaited them. With the past aiding them and their knowledge of events and the true villains behind their time's distortion, they prevented history repeating itself, but at the cost of them no longer being able to return to their home.
Now sealed in a time they only heard through tales, Phyruss fights alongside his family for a brighter future. He works diligently as a hero of justice; saving those in need, aiding the downtrodden, and wooing the occasional damsel (or duke dependent on his tastes at the time).

Our purpose is to provide a safe and inclusive environment where role players can meet and interact with each other, and, of course, post their amazing role play stories, art, bios, and journals.
